The file lynx.cfg still refers to /usr/local/lib as the default location for

The configure script also mentions /usr/local/lib where /usr/local/etc would
be appropriate.
Hopefully this post will suffice, but any upgrader from 2.8.5 to 2.8.6 should
know that the old lynx.cfg in the old default /usr/local/lib needs to get
copied over to /usr/local/etc.
hmm - I should have made the scripting for picking up customizations look
there. I hadn't noticed, since I modified my configure options for lynx
to keep the files in the same location, e.g.,
configure --sysconfdir=/usr/local/lib --datadir=/usr/local/lib
I expect most packagers will do something equivalent...
I grumbled about this before the change, and while I can get used to
anything, as far as this alteration of the default longtime location for the
lynx master config file is concerned, I'm not there yet.
